Six taxi drivers arrested after fracas at Paphos airport

Six men, all taxi drivers, were arrested on Thursday outside Paphos airport after becoming involved in a physical altercation.

The fight was a two-sided affair, with one group of three men aged 22, 48, and 52, fighting the other group of three men aged 21, 39, and 50.
